In Fame and Fiction published in 1901, Bennett analyzes the tastes and whims of the “great public.” He includes chapters on popular authors of his day: J. M. Barrie, George Gissing, Ivan Turgenev, George Moore, and even some whose popularity was more fleeting. Underlying all is Bennett’s fervent democratic belief that Fame dies but the Soul lives.
Über den Autor
Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was a British writer whose prolific output included numerous works of fiction and nonfiction, literary criticism as well as theatre journalism, an opera, and a screenplay. English novelist Margaret Drabble says of him, “Bennett’s books I think are very fine indeed, on the highest level, deeply moving… I feel they have been underrated.”
